In previous posts, I have already talked about the effect of formation permeability on the apparent cement presence behind casing, as seen on cement logs – Excellent cement job, but with terrible results … how is this possible? – Keeping in mind that the dominant factor is the loss of filtrate to the formation, as presented in A […]
A talk about API Fluid Loss
What FL is required and how it can be optimized? Conceptually, API fluid loss (FL) control is required every time there is a permeable formation. This creates a risk (A: can we quantify this risk?) of liquid phase filtration of the of the cement slurry. That, in consequence, creates a risk (B: can we quantify this […]
